The Power of Design Sprints for Product Teams
90 Mins
Workshop
Beginner
Today, product teams are under pressure to be more creative, innovative and delight customers sooner, but lack the knowledge and skills to know where to start. Agile product teams have frameworks and methods for rapid feedback, but generally lack real data from real users to make good business decisions. As product release cycles run long, team members lose enthusiasm and their focus on the customer.
As a tool, design sprints offer Agile teams an effective and transformative formula for testing ideas with real people, whether you're on a small team at a startup, or inside a large portfolio of projects at an enterprise organization. Within five days, teams move from idea to prototyping to better business decisions, ultimately saving time, effort, and energy over the long-run. Join Carlos Oliveira as he introduces design sprints for product teams, a process for rapid experimentation and learning that helps teams solve big problems and test new ideas in less than five days.
Originally created by three partners at Google Ventures, the process has been proven at hundreds of companies. Carlos has run dozens of design sprints for the Fortune 500 and firmly believes that product teams can benefit and harness the power of design sprints to focus their efforts and deliver more appropriate solutions to market sooner. -

A Modern XP Game

Sold Out!45 Mins
Workshop
Beginner
Agile Coaches and Scrum Masters are change agents in their organizations. To be successful, they need a strong understanding of the principles and practices of “agile,” and a robust toolbox to help teams onboard and move through their agile journey. You can gain those by attending certification courses, conferences, reading books, and maybe working with experienced Agile Coaches. However, there was always a more fun option, the XP game. A game that has been around since 1999; It is rooted in XP and it's goal is to teach agile values by living it. This game not only teaches you those values, but it help you experience it for your own, in an environment that is closest to you. Playing this game, will change your approach toward teaching Agile, and even understanding of it. It's a guarantee that it'll become your #1 tool.
Join Shahin and Carlos and take part in a modern twist on the classical “XP Game” – a learning simulation for agile teams first outlined in Extreme Programming Explained (1999). Using the foundational principles of the original XP Game, Modern XP opens the simulation so participants, including non-technical leaders and team members, can gain a deeper understanding of what it means to be part of a high-performing agile team in a variety of frameworks and orientations, and what to expect (and measure) along the agile learning curve. Through hands-on learning, participants will acquire agile capabilities as well as learn tangible tips to overcome barriers and challenges along the agile adoption journey.
After many iterations to many different groups, Shahin and Carlos have refined the exercise, ensuring its accessibility and use for experienced agilists, those new to the field, and anyone in between. The activity not only provides a necessary educational frame, but participants are encouraged to draw from their experience, and implement the simulation (or elements of it) within their own training program, team lift-off or retrospective activity.
